California City Attorney threatens to punish Target store for repeatedly reporting thefts at store in crime-ridden state
A city attorney in California has threatened to punish a Target store for repeatedly reporting thefts at the store in the crime-ridden state.
Sacramento City Attorney Susana Alcala Wood's office said the retail store located at 2505 Riverside Blvd. in Land Park will be fined and slapped with a public nuisance charge if it continues to call police when there is a theft at the store.
A person familiar with the incident, who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal, told The Sacramento Bee that city officials warned that an administrative fine would also be charged.
Alexander Gammelgard, president of the California Police Chiefs Association, who testified at the Assembly’s first retail theft committee meeting in December, stated "'I ... (was) also surprised that anyone would ever attempt to make a nuisance case out of somebody calling to report a legitimate crime."
Under the Proposition 47 initiative that was passed in 2014, lower-level crimes were set as misdemeanors and $950 felony threshold set for shoplifting.

On day one of the new trump administration, I'd like to see all these left-wing prosecutors arrested and charged with felony obstruction.

arrested, charged, and SENTENCED. You forgot one. Currently, only non-marxist dems do time.JPGettysburg wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2024 4:50 pm On day one of the new trump administration, I'd like to see all these left-wing prosecutors arrested and charged with felony obstruction.

It's amazing how quickly the RWNJ's forget all about states rights when abortion isn't involved....

Yes, but once a woman has a viable and sentient human being living inside her, after the first trimester of course, "freedom" only applies if her life is in danger.Diego in Seattle wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2024 9:32 pmThe Feds should allow everyone to make that decision for themselves.The Seer wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2024 9:23 pmEach state doesn't get to choose their own abortion laws?
